There's little doubt that before baby Bronx Mowgli was even half way out of his daughter Ashlee's womb, Joe Simpson was on the phone with various gossip magazines preparing to sell the rights to the exclusive first photos and possibly throw in the afterbirth as an added bonus. The problem is, especially in a crappy economy, no magazines are willing to pony up any scratch for the pictures. Page Six
reports:
ASHLEE Simpson and Pete Wentz are trying to drum up some cash by selling photos of their baby, Bronx Mowgli - but so far, no takers. A celebrity weekly insider told Page Six, "Pete and Ashlee have approached every single celebrity magazine with offers to sell their first photos, but nobody wants them. Covers of them tend not to sell well." A rep for Simpson denied it.
I love that a rep for Simpson denied this claim, as if her family wasn't trying to sell the photos in the first place after they've spent the last few years whoring themselves out in just about every conceivable way.
